Hollyhock

By SKEETERHollyhock blooming in my Georgia Garden. Now the big question. Who gave me the seeds for this beauty?Tina, could you be the kind giver of the seeds? I am enjoying these HOLLYHOCK, In the Garden...

Note: Renovations continue so blogging is slacking for me. I will be so happy when our house is back to normal. I am sitting in a small chair while typing as the room is too cramped for my large comfy office chair. And supplies have moved into the living room which I said was off limits.

I did give a bunch of hollyhock seeds to friends so it is possible. I noticed just yesterday my hollyhocks were beginning to bloom but they are a darker color. I have several types of seeds that friends have given me. Aren't they the sweetest cottage plant?

I hope your reno is done soon. What a mess I know you can't wait until it is all over!

Hello all.Love those Hollyhocks. Sure need to plant some, maybe next yr. Getting a bit too hot here now I think.Must transplant this afternoon when it cools off a bit.Too many things going on just now.

Good evening everyone. Blogger has not been kind to me today. I am just now able to get to comments via my personal Computer Wizard, The Saint.

Tina, I planted these seeds last year when you and Nina gave me several packets of seeds. I lost track of what seeds from whom. I should do a better job of marking them but since I don’t really have luck with seeds, I guess I don’t waste time marking them. Thanks to you and Nina for the wonderful seed packets. When I do have luck with seeds, I give you two credit as you provide me with seeds every time I see you two. You encourage me to plant when I am ready to give up on seeds.

I love the sweet pale pink color to this hollyhock and my first Hollyhock ever!

Hollyhocks are one of my favorite old-fashioned flowers. I never know each year where they will pop up. Last year my showiest one grew straight up from the compost pile:)

We're having some flooring replaced next week and some other projects done; I'm not looking forward to the disruption in my routine either, but the results will be worth it, as I'm sure you'll be happy, too, once everything is done.
